Tokyo Ghoul Live Action Film Teases Fans By Showing Kaneki With Ghoul Mask

A new visual and logo was revealed by staff working on the upcoming live-action film of Sui Ishida's Tokyo Ghoul manga. The poster shows protagonist Ken Kaneki, who is about to wear his iconic one-eyed ghoul mask.

Masanori Morikawa of Christian Dada, a fan of the original manga designed the mask and other costumes for the Tokyo Ghoul live-action film. Kubota will be wearing the mask in the Jump Festa event in Chiba. The said event will also screen two minutes of exclusive live footage on Sunday.

Alongside Masataka Kubota (Death Note, Mars, Photo Braver 7) who will cast as Ken Kaneki, is Fumika Shimizu (Kamen Rider Fourze, HK Hentai Kamen, My Neighbor Seki) who will play the role of Toka Kirishima.

Other actors include: Yuu Aoi as Rize Kamishiro, Nobuyuki Suzuki as Kotaro Amon and Yo Oizumi as Kureo Mado. The film is directed by Kentaro Hagiwara and will open on theaters in Japan next summer.

Fans of different anime series had some serious issues with how the previous live-action film adaptations were served. Although history has shown some awful portrayals, there are still some live-action creations that fans fell in love with and scored high among critics.

This begs the question of whether the highly anticipated Tokyo Ghoul live-action film will be as awesome, thrilling and breath-taking as its anime version. Kaneki's fandom are probably keeping their eyes on the exact date of its release. Its live-action trailer is also expected to sprout around the corners of YouTube and different anime news websites. Watch out for it!

Tokyo Ghoul from Viz Media follows the story of a shy boy Ken Kaneki who will be first seen having a date with the beautiful Rize Kamishiro. It turned out that the girl is only interested in his body - devouring it, that is. A morally questionable rescue from being eaten transformed him as the first half-human half-ghoul hybrid. Ken was dragged into the dark and gory world of ghouls which horrifyingly co-exists with our own.
